Photographer
Elizabeth Austin
I really believe in the power of love and the importance of family. My experience as a wedding photographer has allowed me to enter rooms with people I would not come across in my day-to-day life. I've had the honor to learn about and document different religious ceremonies and cultures. It has opened my eyes to the fact that there's more that we all have in common than what truly separates us.
